Guest Key West Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 I have no personal experience with Hupers auto films, but another tinter did this car with Huper. It was his 1st time using it. Its kinda hard to see, but the areas that got the most heat from shrinking have an "irridescent" or laser etched look, kinda like a CD. It's quite noticeable, even from a distance. Has anyone else out there seen this? Sorry for the crappy pics, ONCE AGAIN, didn't have my camera with me. Any way, I bagged the rear glass for re-do, and everything came off, glue and all, EXCEPT for the areas affected by the distortion. The glue stayed in those areas Go Figger!!!

Guest VOLTRON Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 yes Huper will do that if there is too much heat put on the film. It will also "ghost" when installed on hot glass and the water is not pushed out fast enough. I see it sometimes when installing huper in the sun. The ghosting will go away but dont think the cd look will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said I've seen ghosting, but not in technicolor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest vclimber Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 VO| is right, too much heat. There is a special way to shrink ceramic films so that they do not ghost. If you are a Huper Dealer, then contact your network distributor and they will hook you up with someone that can teach you how. It takes some practice to learn how to handle the film. From what I have seen and experienced, the ghosting does not go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
